Also on the Chobe banks, this giant Marshal Eagle in the BACKGROUND is dwarfing the four legged mammals in foreground!!!!

Sorry for the poor quality, I believe this was 1,400mm, ie: 500mm with 2X and 1.4X stacked,. then cropped, it was far off! But I had to take this photo! I could not believe the size o this eagle. I mean, the books tell you it have the largest wingspan of any eagle, but until you see it...

Jake, if that's poor quality, then I really suck and need to find a new hobby. That's a pretty amazing shot, especially for stacked TCs on a long lens.
